EquiGroomer 5 Inch – Great for Dogs and Cats (5 Inches, approx. 12.7 cm)

Product Information

Grooming your dog involves everything from regular brushing, bathing to nail trims, ear and eyes cleaning, teeth brushing and even hair trimming and anal sac expression with some K9 breeds. Regular grooming not only helps your dog look and feel his best, it is also the perfect time to examine your dog for any potential issues with his coat, skin (like hot spots or lumps), teeth, eyes and ears and /or infections or inflammations. So, does your dog need carding, hand-stripping, both or neither one? ( Hint: they are not the same thing.) I have three cats who all vary with their preferences to brushes, with one not liking being brushed at all. After seeing the EquiGroomer being used on many cats on Girls With The Dogs with success, I had to try one for myself. And I’m glad I did. All my cats took a liking to it and now using the EquiGroomer is an everyday thing. It’s very effective in removing their undercoat and pulls tons of fur. Seriously great product!

Many of use create homemade treats for our dogs and cats. But have you made healthy treats for your horse? Nail trimming is one of the most difficult grooming tasks because so many dogs hate having their paws handled. That’s why it’s important to train puppies early. Want them faster? Put them in the freezer for about 90 minutes. NOTE: If you dofreeze the treats, let them thawbefore offering to your dog to avoid damaging his teeth. Whether you are experienced at grooming your dog or want to begin grooming your dog at home, the tips below will help create an easier experience for you and your dog! Modelled after a traditional shedding stone originally designed for horses. This EquiGroomer is a safe, gentle and effective tool that removes dead and unwanted hair. Perfect for horses, dogs, cats and any other animals that sheds.If you decide to bathe your horse more frequently, use a gentler, hypoallergenic shampoo. (It is also better for a horse with sensitive skin.) The shedding tool will grab, pull and remove (or thin out) the dead or molted undercoat hair which may not fall out on its own with the warmer temperatures. Removing this heavier winter undercoat will also help your canine stay comfortable – and cooler – in the heat. An amazing experience with this tool. My cat is a medium/long-hair rescue and extremely averse to any grooming tools. With the Equigroomer, she’ll snuggle up and purr while I brush her. My only problem is it’s hard to get her other side, because half the time she’s asleep by the time I’m done the first side! Not all dogs need to be hand-stripped, it is more about the type of coat than about the dog’s breed. Also, some coats will require just seasonal stripping, while others will need to be stripped more frequently.

I just received the 5 inch Equigroomer for my boxer. I works wonders on him, I couldn’t believe how much under coat a boxer really has. This comb is gentle on the coat and it gives you better results then the Furminator. Not all dogs like to be groomed, so it is important to know your dog’s preferences and tolerance at being handled during grooming. If you have a puppy, begin grooming them at an early age to avoid issues later as they grow bigger and stronger!Regular bathing keeps your dog’s body clean and comfortable! Be sure to bathe him for his breed and coat. After shampooing, thoroughly rinse and dry your dog.

Kathy, thanks for your very important tip. The groomer definitely works better when you use pressure but so many people are afraid to press down. But when they do, they find their pets actually enjoy the feeling, just like your cat did.My dog usually runs at the sight of a brush but he laid down and let me brush him with this brush. Just looked at it when I started brushing him and continued snoozing away. I love that I don’t have to try to scrape the hair out of the brush after. Regularly grooming your rabbit not only nurtures their overall health but helps keep them cooler in the summer heat by removing their loose hair.

Daisy, thank you for your awesome review and for giving our products a try on both your dog and cats! Thank you, too, for pointing out how much better their coats feel once you remove all that dull, dry hair. Our groomers really do improve the quality of an animal’s coat, no matter the type. Record hot temperatures have already been seen around the country. Use the 9 tips below to protect your rabbit from the summer heat! Ermine: This describes a dark marking within the white marking above the hoof but also touching the coronet (coronary band) which differentiates it from a regular spot. Brushing offers the opportunity to catch potential health issues early which may help save on costly vet visits for: A spot can be anywhere on a horse’s body. What’s unique is that the “ hair swirls in a circular direction” in contrast to the rest of the horse’s coat.Suggestions: Add mint, parsley, turmeric, pieces of fruit or veggies before refrigerating or freezing. DO NOT wash your dog too often to avoid removing natural oils and causing the coat and skin to become unnaturally dry. Warm and sunny days are perfect for letting your horse dry naturally. Use a sweat scraper to remove/whisk away as much water as possible before thoroughly drying the entire body. ( See EquiGroomer “WaterWisk” scraper/squeegee tool here .) Then cover with a clean sweat sheet in case your clean horse decides to enjoy an enthusiastic roll on the ground! At the end of the day, it is the horse owner who decides on what is best for their horse, health, overall well-being and ultimately comfort. Maintaining a horse’s optimal health – including bathing – is different for each equine. DO brush your dog at least 3-4 times a week for a great coat and to also nurture your bond with your dog. Use an appropriate brush/comb for your dog’s specific coat texture and length.
